I think I'm the "odd man out" in this case. I doubt I could EVER get used to clipless pedals. I have seen all the brands and makes and models and whatnot. I am happy with toe clips on my C&V 1985 Fuji road bike. Clipless pedals on a vintage road bike would look a little strange, if you ask me

Maybe one day... One day... If/When I finally decide to upgrade and get a real nice modern road bike, I will take another look at a basic, beginner, "newbie", type of pedal. Something where I am not going to freak out, crash, and end up in the hospital with a broken shoulder because I couldn't unclip in time. My gut instinct in 0.03 seconds flat is to yank my foot backwards out of the toe strap. It's all I know and have known....
